The Library is soliciting Bids to furnish all equipment and service required to provide and maintain walk-up digital photocopier services in designated branches of the Somerset County Library System, addresses available at the Somerset County Library System website. Copier operation should be simple and intuitive for multiple one-time users typically found at public libraries.
It is required by the Library that the successful service provider provide all new or remanufactured energy efficient, digital, network ready multi-function print devices. The successful vendor should offer a full range of copiers and features to meet the needs of the library with the minimum specifications provided.
The Library anticipates implementing a cloud-based credit card payment solution for copier and printer services in 2027. To support this initiative, all proposed copiers must be equipped with an integrated touchscreen display and support the installation and operation of a dedicated marketplace application for the Library’s payment solution.
